Google Tag Manager Vendor Tag Template Program

To make it easier for users to deploy third-party tags, we've developed an open format that allows vendors to implement and maintain their own tag templates.

The Google Tag Manager Tag Vendor Program allows tag providers to natively integrate with Google Tag Manager's tag templating system. Upon appointment by Google as a tag vendor, you'll experience the following benefits:

• Google Tag Manager users will be able to add your tag easily.
• Google Tag Manager users will be exposed to your tag and brand.
• Your clients will be able to add or modify your tags on their site within minutes, not months.

Note: Tag Manager can be used to deploy any website tag that doesn’t expect to be expanded inline. For example, tags that display advertisements on website (like Google AdSense) typically will not be accepted for tag templates, because they need to be inserted in the HTML of the page exactly where the ad should be displayed.

The following instructions outline how to get started and the process for enrollment:
